She is a big fan of hair extensions and recently splashed out 1,500 pounds to
have her hair perfectly styled.
But Victoria Beckham has finally ditched her blonde streaked flowing locks
for a dramatic elfin-style crop--and it's driving husband David wild.
The 32-year-old stepped out for dinner to show off her new crop in London's
Notting Hill wearing a slinky off-the-shoulder top.
Keen to draw attention to her new look, she strode purposely down the street
of one of London's most fashionable areas in a daring mini-skirt, more
reminiscent of a belt.
Her new crop also uncovered a tattoo running down the back of her neck which
has been hidden for years. The Hebrew inscription, which matches the one on
David's arm, reads "I am my beloved and my beloved is mine."
The singer was reportedly talked into the new look by top photographer Thiemo
Sander, who is shooting her for a glossy magazine interview this month.
But she didn't take much persuading and immediately booked into Ben Cooke's
trendy salon in Chelsea.
Once source told the Daily Mirror: "She was getting tired of so many girls
imitating her. Even some of the other England wives and girlfriends have been,
let's say, 'inspired' by her."
The new crop is a dramatic style change for Victoria, who is a big fan of
hair extensions.
It is possible she has tired of the complicated process and health risks of
hair extensions, which sees the new hair woven into her own and glued or
heat-sealed in place.
And she was clearly rocked when pictures emerged recently showing she was
losing her hair.
Experts warn extensions can put excessive pressure on the scalp, with the
risk of natural hair being pulled.
In a panic, Victoria flew out of Germany earlier this year, where her husband
was playing in the World Cup, to replace her old hair extensions which had been
tugging at her natural hair and causing an embarrassing bald spot.
